QURAN LESSONS

Surah
At-Talaq (The Divorce)
This Surah was revealed in Madinah, and it has 12 verses and 2 sections

In
the Name of Allah, The Beneficent, The Most Merciful

“O
prophet, when you people divorce women, divorce them at a time when the
period of "iddah may start! And count the period of "iddah,
and fear Allah, your Lord. Do not expel them from their houses, nor should
they go out, unless they come up with a clearly shameless act. And these
are the limits prescribed by Allah. And whoever exceeds the limits prescribed
by Allah wrongs his own self. You do not know (what will happen in future);
it may be that Allah brings about anew situation thereafter.” [1]

COMMENTARY:

Three
Simultaneous Divorces: Unlawful but Effective

It
is noticed that people who pronounce three simultaneous divorces regret
bitterly and are in search of legal loopholes, so that they do not lose
their wives.

Imam
Nasa'i reports, on the authority of Sayyidna Mahmud Ibn Labid, in an authentic
Tradition that the Holy Prophet Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam was informed
about a person who had pronounced three divorces on the spur of the moment
to his wife. The Holy Prophet Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam having heard
this became angry. Therefore, pronouncing three divorces simultaneously,
by consensus of the Ummah, is prohibited. Even if a person pronounces
three divorces separately in three different clean periods, which too
is reprehensible, by consensus of the Ummah. Qur'anic verses themselves
confirm this by indication.

But
just as the Ummah holds by consensus that pronouncing three divorces simultaneously
is prohibited, it is also a point of consensus among the entire Ummah
that despite being prohibited, if a person pronounces three simultaneous
divorces, all the three divorces become effective, and fresh marriage
between them, in future, would not be possible.

On
this issue, not only the four major schools agree unanimously, but there
is also overwhelming consensus of the noble Companions.

One
of the best marksmen in the FBI was passing through a small town. Everywhere
he saw evidences of the most amazing shooting. On trees, on walls, and
on fences there were numerous bull's-eyes with the bullet hole in dead
center. The FBI man asked one of the townsmen if he could meet the person
responsible for this wonderful marksmanship. The man turned out to be
the village idiot.

"This
is the best marksmanship I have ever seen," said the FBI man. "How
in the world do you do it?"

"Nothing
to it," said the idiot. "I shoot first and draw the circles
afterwards."
